My Executive 8.Owned it well over 10 years. The rear end was run low on gear lube until an axle gave out. I tried to have an axle made but nobody local could cut the splines.Then my brother found me a parts tractor that had a good transaxle so I swapped the entire unit in. That was a couple of years ago. Still never have had it running.......10 years is long enough, I think I'll take it to the scrap yard this week.

Yes. Original. At least as far as I know. When I got it last year it did not have a PTO. The fella who originally bought it did so for snow plowing I believe. Apparently he died same year he bought it and it sat in barn for years until the fella I bought it from's uncle bought it from the widow to help her out and he used it for a year or two to pull maple syrup cart. In essence if true, very little usage.

It took me a while to locate the PTO stuff and I rebuilt the spindles on the deck.

I have mowed with it twice.

I currently have 4 machines. The other 3 are Wheel Horses.

So I am considering putting this on up for trade.

While its very nice condition, it does have paint worn in a few places and th eusual surface rust on the flat surfaces. What I would expect from a 40ish year old tractor.

Thank you! It does have a little paint fading on the right wheels where the sunshine came in through the barn. There is a small dent on the seat back where a roof beam landed on it. The seller pulled it and it's big brother from a caved in barn where they sat for 25 years. My only regret is I didn't get copies of the pics he had from the recovery.people have asked why I don't paint the faded wheels but like the say"they are only original once".
